“Kristy and her family were awesome! My two pups were very well socialized with all of her pets, even my anxious girl became comfortable and seemed to enjoy her stay. Kristy gave them both special attention, even making them scrambled eggs one morning, and letting them cozy up on her bed. You can tell she is a true dog lover and understands what they need. She gave me lots of updates and photos to put my mind at ease!”

“Karrie was AWESOME!! She was extremely attentive and responsive!! We received wonderful pictures everyday twice a day and Gidgett always seemed so happy and well taken care of. Very thankful for such a wonderful, caring and attentive dog lover to care for our dog!! Thank you, Karrie!!”
“Thanks so much for a great stay! Our plans changed last minute and we needed someone to watch our 6 month old Shepherd mix. Natalia was so accommodating and helpful, and made our dog feel very welcome.”
“Thank you so much to Katy and family for taking our little rascal, Izzy, for the weekend! Even though she was nervous to start, we can tell that she had a wonderful time at your house. I didn't think I would care much about receiving pictures and videos over such a short DogVacay, but it was really fun and helped her humans to relax! Also, we very much appreciate your last-minute flexibility with the lack of coordination on our end. :) See you again soon!”
“Stephen and his family were great with our dog (and family member) Rainey. So much better to have a loving family take care of her than boarding her. I highly recommend them. Scott”
“This was our first time using Brittney & Adam, as our usual sitter was unavailable but it was a great experience! We did a meet and greet prior to her week long stay which helped us feel more at ease. They sent us many pictures during the stay and we would definitely use them again!”

“Lainey just had her first stay with Billie and it was for two weeks. Lainey has some separation anxiety and, if I'm being honest, so do I. But Billie made our two weeks apart so easy and seamless. I had a couple scheduling issues with pickup, like my flight home being delayed, and Billie was entirely understanding, accommodating, and flexible, which was especially appreciated. I know Lainey had a great time with Billie and am grateful for the several photos and check-ins Billie provided. Definitely going to be a repeat customer!”
“Tori and the kids, thank you so much for hosting Koda. We're so happy to see that Koda is settling in so well and getting all the snuggles. She's already feeling right at home. Thank you again for taking such great care of Koda.”

“Krystina was awesome! Booked her last minute, met up right away to walk through our routine and then scheduled for a couple drops ins a day because I had an elderly mom staying who can’t handle the dogs on her own. She sent lots of pictures, lots of play time and booty scratches. They looked so happy! She was so kind to help me with a few minor unrelated pet things here and there on some days when she was at the house. I will definitely book her again and recommend her to anyone I know!”
“Paul & Becky were fantastic! They were communicative, consistent and kind during a long trip away. They sent updates and pictures twice a day of our cat and gave him medication and lots of love. This was a last minute request, and Paul and Becky jumped in, cared for our cat and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Can’t thank them enough!”
About: I’ve cared for cats for family, friends, and neighbors and understand that every cat has their own personality and routine. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I’m happy to provide patient, attentive care while you’re away. I’m comfortable feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing, giving lots of attention (or space when needed!), and making sure your cat stays happy and comfortable in their own environment. As a Fish, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology Alumni from Colorado State University, caring for animals has always been a huge passion of mine, and I’ll treat your cat like my own!
“Chuck and Sharon are the Best of the Best Pet Sitters. We could relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our Beetle and Jeffy would have top notch care, and they did. We loved the daily updates. THANK YOU CHUCK and SHARON Gary & Carolyn Johnson”
“Leaving my 14-month-old cat, Oreo, for the first time was nerve-wracking, but Kristi made the entire experience so easy. She was immediately responsive from the time I booked, through scheduling, drop-off, and pickup, and always answered my messages quickly. She sent plenty of updates and photos during Oreo’s 3-night stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked Oreo up, she meowed the whole ride home like she was telling me all about her vacation while I was on my vacation! 😂 I’m so grateful for the wonderful care Kristi and her family gave Oreo, and I will definitely consider booking with them again!”
“Shelby was awesome! She took great care of my kitty Oliver while we were on vacation and even sent pictures of her playing with him during each visit. It definitely made me feel much more at ease about leaving him for a long period of time.”
“Carol was such a wonderful care taker to our girl, Josie. I loved all of her updates and photos. She was so reliable and gave our pup lots of love and attention while we were away. Definitely recommend!!”
“Christina was very reliable (even came during huge storms), and very communicative! She also got creative when Snickers (my cat) slowed down eating. I will absolutely use her again.”
About: I’ve had cats my entire life and grew up caring for them, so I’m very comfortable with their unique personalities and needs. I have experience with feeding, playtime, and making sure cats feel safe and relaxed in their environment. I understand that every cat is different—some love attention while others prefer space—and I’m patient and attentive to each one’s comfort level. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their cats, and I always treat them with the same care and respect as my own.
About: Ever since I was a little girl i’ve had a dog in my household. I grew up with 2 chihuahuas, and now have a boston terrier rescue, and 2 frenchtons of my own!! They are my whole world and let me tell you… they’re spoiled rotten! And i’m ready to do the same to your babies! Dogs are already part of my everyday life, so caring for them fits in very naturally. I keep a flexible schedule and I am home a lot, which means walks, feedings, playtime, and hanging out are just part of my normal day. Your dog is not being squeezed into a busy routine. They get real time, attention, and care. I am very go with the flow but also very attentive. I follow routines, pay attention to body language, and make sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I live in a super dog friendly area with nearby parks, but I always keep safety first and only do what your dog is comfortable with. Lots of supervision, patience, and common sense mixed with plenty of love.
“Monica did a great job and made me deal super secure while I was away from my babies I truly dread taking vacation just because I hate to leave them. She stayed in touch with me ever step of the way and sent me fun pics to show me how much fun they were having. The only bad news is now my kitty thinks I am going to play all these fun games- lol. Thank you, Monica!”
“Michelle did great checking on both our cats (indoor and outdoor cats) while we were gone over the holidays! Sending pics gave us comfort knowing that they were taken care of each day. We will definitely rebook for future trips!”
“Kaitlyn has been checking in on my dogs for a little over a year, and I couldn’t be happier with her service! Great communication, dogs love her, and always on time. Definitely book with her if you’re wanting a reliable and trustworthy person with your pups!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care that Ana Beatriz provided for our two cats, Lilly and Ava! From the very beginning, communication was clear, friendly, and prompt. During the visits, Ana gave each cat the perfect balance of attention—understanding Lilly’s need for extra affection and Ava’s more independent personality. We received daily updates with photos and notes, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Ana genuinely cared for our girls and took the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and cat-savvy sitter. We already booked again for our next trip!”

“Kelci was a fantastic sitter for our puppy. As soon as you meet her you can sense her genuine love for animals. They took such great care of Winston and we could tell he was comfortable with their family and other pets when we came to pick him up. It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in good hands with lots of space to play! We will definitely be choosing Kelci again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 20 years and they are always a part of our family. we currently have a golden doodle and love spending most of our time with our boy Simba. I am a software professional mostly stay at home to care of our daughter and dog. Also, we all stay at home during weekends and any holidays. So we got you covered for most of the time. We have a huge fenced yard, and I can take your dog for long walks and crate him required. I have my own fur buddy and we crate him for his naps.
About: My wife and I have cared for pets our whole lives—dogs, cats, chickens, birds, and fish. Today we have two happy dogs of our own, and we often look after family and friends’ pets. We're devoted to giving every four-legged friend the same love and care we give our own. I work from home, so I’m able to give dogs plenty of attention and care throughout the day. My wife and I are available seven days a week to keep your pup happy and comfortable. My wife and I live in a quiet neighborhood with a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can play safely. Our two dogs are on a regular schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and walks, and we’ll give the same care and consistency to yours. We can crate if needed and block off stairs for older dogs to prevent accidents. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always a top priority.
“This is the first time our golden retriever has stayed anywhere without us so we were a little nervous. I think Ellie had a a great time. She was happy and tired when she got home. She looked to be having fun in the pictures Katie sent. Katie and her husband were so friendly and welcoming I won’t hesitate to use them again.”
“Billie gives such kind, loving care to Ginger. She makes adorably decorated little jars of home made treats for special holidays and is a wonderful caregiver to our senior dog. Her own dog is an easy going older fella himself, and they ignore each other companionable. 😄”
About: If you're looking for genuine, dedicated care, look no further! My name is Ryan, and as a full-time, stay-at-home step-dad, I have the inherent flexibility and unwavering devotion to ensure your pets have a comfortable, fun, and personalized stay. With no children of my own, my commitment is complete: I treat every animal I care for as my own child. I recently made the move from California and am using the financial stability created through different ventures to pursue one of my passions: pet sitting. This isn't a job for me; it's a heartfelt side venture, meaning your pet gets my undivided attention during their stay. My goal is simple: for your animals to have the absolute best, most loving experience possible while you're away. Unlike part-time sitters who squeeze visits between other obligations, my schedule is structured around consistent pet care and family time. As a stay at home pet parent, caring for my two Golden Retrievers and cat forms as a constant of my daily routine. This means all walks, feeding times, and play sessions are scheduled with precision and are not subject to outside work conflicts. Whether I am providing in-home boarding or day stays, I am always present and available. I commit to maintaining your pet's exact routine, from specific medication times to late-night potty breaks, ensuring a stable, predictable, and stress-free experience. 1. Trust and Availability Trust is the foundation of my service. As a full-time, stay-at-home sitter, your pet receives genuine, focused attention that is simply unmatched. My flexible schedule means I am not juggling another job; I am fully dedicated to their care. This constant presence allows me to quickly recognize any change in behavior, diet, or health and respond immediately. Please feel free to observe my home environment and my interactions with my two Golden Retrievers and cat. I provide updates, photos, and communication so you always feel connected and assured that your pet is safe and thriving. 2. In My Home (Boarding/Daycare) For in-home boarding, I provide a safe, secure, and pet-proofed environment. My home is designed to be a comfortable, low-stress retreat. Dogs enjoy a consistent routine of feeding, play, and scheduled outdoor time in a fenced yard (with or without my two dogs- preference based). All medications are administered exactly as prescribed and logged. For the safety of everyone, only pets who are current on vaccinations and demonstrate friendly temperaments are accepted. The environment is always low-density, meaning I take a limited number of guests at any time to guarantee that every animal receives the maximum amount of personal attention, love, and care.
“Ms. Kathy is very nice and took good care of my 80 pound bernedoodle Roxy. He looked very happy playing in backyard with Riggs(Kathy's dog). I have received photos and updates how Roxy was doing. I would definitely look forward to booking again sometime in future.”

I have.a good size backyard , I can take care of dogs or cats and let them out as needed and also give complete love, ❤️ care and compassion.
“My GRIM just stayed with Aubrey today and I am not waiting to write a review! I am so so happy he got to experience a great play day with her and her dog after our last experience with another sitter a few weeks ago. I will definitely be reaching out to Aubrey every time I need a sitter from now on! She had no issues watching my pitbull breed. She fed him and gave me the food back that he didn’t eat instead of leaving me wondering how much he had ate. She sent me multiple pictures throughout the day. She had all of his stuff ready to go when I got there to pick him up. She had a clean and very spacious fenced back yard for them to run around in all day. She and her family were very friendly and welcoming. I could not have asked for anything more!”
“Sarah and family were so warm and inviting! They treated our dog like one of their own. We have planned for him to stay an entire week with them when we are away on vacation. We trust them fully!”
“I can't thank Griffin enough for taking care of my dog on such short notice. They were incredibly accommodating and provided excellent care. Highly recommended!"”
“Great communications (several check ins, including picture) to let me know my mini goldendoodle Enzo was settling in with the other dogs and doing well during his first day. Enzo was calm and confident when I picked him up - indicating it was a good experience for him too :) Thanks!”
About: With over 25 years as a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) and extensive experience in professional dog training, I bring a unique blend of medical knowledge and behavior expertise to every session. I specialize in humane reward based training and behavior modification, creating personalized training plans tailored to each dog’s breed, life stage, and temperament. Whether it’s puppy foundations, fine-tuning manners, or addressing behavior challenges, I love coaching pet owners virtually to achieve lasting results. My approachable style and deep understanding of canine behavior help build strong, positive bonds between dogs and their families. Training should be effective, supportive and fun!! I’m passionate about helping both pets and their people succeed, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. I offer virtual/online sessions, mostly during the day, but in some special cases I will see clients outside of those times as well, if they local. I currently do not offer any services inside my home or any over night stays at this time, but I may be able to offer visiting clients homes for special cases.
About: My pet care experience began when I was a young child. My parents have always had at least five pets that I helped train and take care of while growing up. After we moved to a farm, they adopted more pets (dogs, cats, chickens, etc.); which allowed me to have more responsibilities and experiences taking care of animals. In college, I adopted my dog and had her for over 13 years. Sadly, she passed from old age and I have not adopted another pet since. I currently have a full-time job, but it does not involve animals. I am on Rover because I enjoy being around animals and taking care of them. My schedule is flexible and would allow me ample time throughout the day to assist others with their pets. My husband and I have very flexible work schedules that allow us to work from home most, if not all, of the week. We love going for walks with the dogs and playing with them in our fenced in backyard. As mentioned above, we have a fenced in backyard. We also have a large crate available if you prefer to have your dog crates for part of its stay. Thanks for taking your time to read about me! Hopefully, you’ll allow me to help you with your pet(s)!
About: I've had pets my whole life, and love all kinds! Through the years, I've had cats and dogs, birds, ferrets, hamsters, rabbits, mice, and hermit crabs as personal pets. I currently have a 10-year-old Bichon Frise, a two-year-old rabbit, and a one-year-old cat. My sweet Siren (cat) passed away last year just shy of her 22nd birthday. I'm available to help other people out by providing a loving, friendly face to walk or visit your pet, or to watch them in our home when you need. I provide gentle care that is tailored to each pet. Some pets need a quiet and calm presence, others want to expend energy and play. I adapt to the needs of the pet so every pet can feel comfortable! I'm a teacher currently on summer break! I have two kids at home, a teenage son and an elementary-age daughter, and if your pet comes to stay with us then he or she can expect plenty of love, pets, and cuddles and as much play as they want! When I come to your home, I make sure your pet has plenty of food and fresh water, as well as clean bedding. I spend time playing, petting, brushing, and/or walking your pet, whatever you and they would like. In our home, we have a fenced-in backyard and a friendly Bichon Frise who loves other dogs and cats. Let me know if your pet requires medication administration or any special instructions, any I am able to accommodate that.
About: Hello! **Repeat Clients get specialized Discount** I am an avid animal lover. I got my first pet when I was 3 years old. It was a kitten named Nicky. He taught me a lot of responsibility and showed me a lot of love. A few years later my my mom added several dogs to the family - miniature Schnauzers, Standard Schnauzer, and a Beagle mix Having these animals in my life has given me great experience and also taught me unconditional love. My previous dog helped me get through the rough days when I lost my mom to cancer. I have learned to care for seniors, animals requiring medication (orally) and how to work with young animals especially puppies. In your employ my top priority will be your pets happiness. Working for you is my only employment and my focus will be on your dog or cat only. They will get my undivided attention and I hope to spoil them like crazy. Since I have dealt with several puppies I can even try to bring some training tips to your dog if needed. Personally, I do still have my pup Julius but he lives with family out in the country loving his best life in open fields He is 12 now, He is my furry angel in he was my little protector. It is so true that not all angels have wings. I would have kept him but I could not afford all of the vet bills when you take care of a pet properly, luckily I have a family member I love so much that was able to provide that. I love spoiling dogs of course with the doggy parental guidelines, this includes specific food regiments and pills. I hope that I will get to meet you and your fur babies soon! I have a very go with the flow attitude, I make any animal I care for #1. I dont work full time, so time for pet care is very important to me. Whatever routine the family has I stick to for consistency. I do have other activities I do but they are always scheduled around my work as a pet care provider. 🙂 In my home I create a safe environment. I'm very aware of other animals around to keep your dogs safety number one priority. Unfortunately in this world people at their dogs off leash and that can be a problem. I have no problem following any regimented food or medication delivered to the animals. Also if I'm in a client's home I would treat it with respect and basically make it look like nothing has changed except your dog has gotten top-notch care. If there's anything specific in the requiring overnight boarding I am more than happy to oblige with that.

About: As someone who has loved animals since they were born, I was always the person in the neighborhood who people asked to check on their pets. And even all these years later, that still hasn’t changed. As someone who has owned dogs my entire life, I understand how important finding the right person to pet set is, so I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’ve watched younger dogs who constantly want to play and have lots of energy to older dogs who just want to sleep all day. I also have experience dealing with dogs who have health issues, so don’t worry about pill time, I know all the tricks. As it’s summer now, I’m free pretty much always and would love to be able to watch your fur baby. Whether it’s just a walk around the block or a simple potty break, I promise to treat your pets like they were my own. I’m currently on summer break and don’t have a job so other then babysitting a few times a week and spending time with my family I’m all free. I already feed and look after my own pets, a sweet senior golden retriever and a silly 5 year old cat, so taking care of pets fits perfectly into my life. I have my own car that can easily fit most dogs into it, so drives to the park are an option. I’m also perfectly comfortable staying at a home for a few hours to make sure your pet doesn’t get lonely or doing just a quick check in, whatever you want. I love to personalize my care for the needs of each pet. If that means hanging out for a few hours watching tv with your pet, I’m totally down. Or if your pet would prefer a simple check in and likes to be left alone, I’m more than happy to do that. As these are your pets, I believe that you know what is best for them, so any lists, suggestions, and recommendations are most appreciated.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and other pets my whole life and have loved them all so much! I’ve been dog sitting and cat sitting for family and friends since I’ve been able to drive, and I enjoy spending time with animals. I just graduated high school so I have lots of available time, and I love going on walks and runs. I have experience with many different animals with different personalities, so I’ll know how to give all pets some love! I’m on my summer break before college so I have plenty of time to care for your pups and cats! I love going for long walks and runs on trails or around the neighborhood. Before walking or dog sitting a new dog, I like to know a bit about their personalities and how energetic they are. I do require that all animals I care for are friendly with people and other pets, and are not aggressive or territorial over their food or home.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and grew up taking care of both dogs and cats, so I’m very comfortable with a wide range of needs and personalities.

Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets, and I always treat every animal like they’re my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine since I have two dogs and a cat of my own. I’m used to regular feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets get attention throughout the day. Because of this, I’m very flexible and can easily fit in check-ins, walks, or extended care depending on your pet’s needs. I’m consistent, reliable, and make sure every pet gets the time and care they deserve. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet. With two friendly dogs and a cat at home, I’m experienced in managing different personalities and making sure everyone feels comfortable. I always prioritize safety, whether that means supervised interactions, keeping pets on their normal routine, or separating animals if needed. In a client’s home, I respect your space and follow all instructions closely to make sure your pet feels secure and cared for while you’re away.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life.

I know every pet is different because I’ve experienced that with my own dogs. One of my dogs has epilepsy and takes medication on a strict schedule, so I understand how important routines, careful observation, and clear communication are. I have a fenced backyard and will follow your pet’s feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions exactly as you ask. Whether your pet is young, senior, or has special needs, I’ll treat them with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I give my own pets. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and happy while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of family friends pets and I just recently started as a dog socializer at wayside waifs where I walk and play with them!

I also know how to handle different types of dogs and emotions and how to approach them
About: I grew up on a farm with, cats, dogs, chickens, goats, ducks, geese. rabbits, horses, cattle, and a variety of household pets. I was a veterinary technician for 20 years. Being in the veterinary field, I saw many household pets suffer separation anxiety being left at the clinic to board and also saw pets get sick after boarding due to being out of their home environment, which is how TLC Equine & Pet Care got started. I am currently 100% self-employed and can fit any schedule to work with the needs of your pet's health and safety. I also provide mail and package pickup, set trash out to the curb, water plants. Make your home look lived in while you are away. I do care for dogs in my home, it is a very relaxed environment. I live in the country and do not have a fenced in yard. They are walked on leashes and completely safe. Playpens also provided upon request for playtime outside.
“Carolina has great communication with both Odie and me! Kind, on-time, and calm with both of us! She has been so helpful in getting Odie the exercise he really needed. I hope to use her services the rest of this summer!”
About: I've had dogs of my own my whole life. I have cared for a variety of dogs such as administering to my neighbors diabetic dog to caring for my own 100 pound doberman pincher. I am also a certified nurses assistant which as taught me immense skills in caretaking and focusing on the health and wellness of others; skills in which carry over to animal caretaking!! I'm currently working part time and have a pretty flexible schedule!!! My schedule is super easy to work with and I am willing to work around your schedules as well! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that every dog has unique needs, so I take the time to follow each owner's instructions carefully and provide attentive, reliable care. Whether we're going for walks, playing, or relaxing at home, you can trust that your dog will be treated with the same love, patience, and respect that I would give my own.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was two years old—often caring for multiple dogs at once—so managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines comes naturally to me. I’ve also cared for a dog with special needs, which has given me a deeper understanding of patience, attentiveness, and the importance of following specific care instructions. I treat every pet like they’re my own, focusing on their comfort, routine, and emotional well-being so they feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. I run my own business from home, which allows me to seamlessly incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I’m able to be with my dog throughout the day, giving her plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and care whenever she needs it. I’m able to provide attentive, consistent care for pets both in my home and in a client’s home. Since I have full control of my schedule it allows me to be present throughout the day for feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. In my home, pets receive a calm, comfortable environment with plenty of supervision and affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to maintain their usual routines and environment, ensuring they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owner is away.
“Jake absolutely adores Shelby! She went out of her way to meet us before the walk (Christmas night) and I really appreciated that. Jake is in good hands with her and I’m so glad we found her! Definitely will be using Shelby regularly.”
“Highest of Kudos to Katie on her care and love for my dog Jake. There's enough things to be concerned about during knee replacement and recovery without the worry that my best buddy was not going to get the attention and exercise he needs and craves. Katie exceeded all my expectations, was flexible scheduling and Jake just loved Katie, her home (especially the backyard fountain and kids pool, and her puppies. Would, and will be, scheduling again!”
About: I have had dogs and cats in my life since I was a small child. I have had puppies and geriatric dogs. I know what they need to stay out of trouble, play, affection, excercise. I have a young dog myself and she loves to play so I have gotten pretty good at it. If you live in the Miami County area of KS, I can easily visit your pet if you have to be away. I can also give medicines or baths if need be. Your beloved pet will be as comfortable as I can make them. In this time which health and safety are primary concerns please know that I will practice CDC guidelines and aseptic hand Hygiene. I can even bring a leash with me for walks. If you will place treats, food or any necessities out where I can access them touch contact will be limited. I will sanitize before interacting with your pet and after leaving. Hopefully this will all be behind us soon.
About: I grew up with dogs and then my husband and I got our first dog in 2000 when our youngest was four. We added another dog in 2007. I can’t imagine a home without them. We currently have two dogs—one 14 year old beagle mix and one 1 year old lab. We love to play and go for walks. I’d love to treat your family dog to a potty break, a walk or full time care when you’re away! I am retired and my schedule is very flexible. I can fit pet care into most of my days if you need someone to stop by to let your dog out or even to go for a walk. For overnight care, I would prefer to have your dog come to us at this time. I can accommodate your dog according to your needs. I’m happy to stop in to play or to take them for a walk, if needed. If your dog comes to stay, we have a large, fenced-in back yard. Your pup would be one of the family while with us as our lab would love a playmate!

“Thank you so much to Katy and family for taking our little rascal, Izzy, for the weekend! Even though she was nervous to start, we can tell that she had a wonderful time at your house. I didn't think I would care much about receiving pictures and videos over such a short DogVacay, but it was really fun and helped her humans to relax! Also, we very much appreciate your last-minute flexibility with the lack of coordination on our end. :) See you again soon!”

“Gina was absolutely amazing with our Frenchie fluffy, Bruno! She treated him like her own, kept us updated with cute photos/videos, and made sure he was happy, safe, and loved the entire time.

Highly recommend Gina to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and truly wonderful pet sitter. Five stars all the way! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“I truly enjoyed meeting Katie, and so did our pup Sam. Katie took great care giving Sam his meds, giving him exercise and paying attention to him. Sam truly enjoyed his stay with Katie and her family!! I would recommend Katie to anyone wanting a loving family to care for their pup while away.”
“They did an amazing job with Nymeria. She was slow to warm up at first, but they kept me updated and reassured me that she was starting to come out of her shell and get comfortable. The communication they provided was very much appreciated and made me feel so much more comfortable knowing she was in a safe and loving environment. She is back home and sleeping soundly now, and I know she had a great time and received plenty of care and attention. It was such a relief knowing she was in good hands and not sitting in a cold kennel without much human interaction. I truly appreciated the care, patience, and communication throughout her stay. I will absolutely be using their services again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets.”
